The precipitation of alloy carbides during the long term heat treatment of 10CrMoV martensitic steel is modelled. The calculations allow in principle for the simultaneous formation of all kinds of precipitates, albeit at different rates. The diffusion-controlled growth theory used incorporates multicomponent diffusion, and soft-impingement
